It stayed at 12c, it got cloudy and the moon had gone by midnight so a busy nights trapping followed....shame it was the second shortest night of the year!. So many new species and I can't ID all of them yet so if anyone can give me some clues please do.
The trap was out from 10:10pm till 3:20am

Hi Ian,
ReplyDeleteYour Northern Spinach looks very much like a micro called a Meal moth #1417. I trapped 1 last year........I can't help you with your macros.
